Yeah, the May issue of Wired magazine had a lengthy portrayal of TSMC as a company and their work ethic apparently made it very difficult to bring in American employees of TSMC to the HQ in Taiwan. Considering EU labor laws and German work-life balance priorities, not sure how well this can go ๐
thanks for pointing that out, interesting insights in that article, but wow that was the worst piece of writing I had to endure in a long time. It's amazing how you can say so little with so much text.
Yeeeaaaahhhhh, I usually enjoy Virginia Heffernan's writing, but this piece was something else. Too dreamy and poetic for most of it. Like, I get that you metaphorically stared God in the face considering the nano-tech going on in TSMC's fabs and that you want to convey a sense of absolute awe... but it gets tiring really fast
